Zesty Orange and Sesame Marinated Tofu
Serves: Serves 4 to 6
Tofu is the perfect food for marinating. Its silky texture soaks up the flavors and allows them to shine. I love to combine this recipe with a few bright ingredients such as udon noodles, cilantro and carrots for a super fresh and healthy salad.
